Re: Strange behaviour when opening .xls or .doc files by Webdav URL in IE

Hi,

Yes, this is a default security feature of IE 
(this should work fine with Firefox). If you 
enable anonymous login on internet sites 
(Internet Options > Security Folder > Internet 
Icon > Custom Level > at the bottom, you have 
User Authentification - Logon - Anonymous Logon > 
Please enable this one). Once done, this should then work.

Else you may also add these specific Jahia sites 
in the trusted zone and do the same operations 
(in order to only allow anonymous login for these specific sites).

Cheers
Stéphane
